Last week we began a bit of a media drive ramping up to EGX Rezzed. We have been releasing more gifs, screen shots and music than ever before. You can see them by visiting our twitter account and Facebook pages, but here is a selection of them in case you missed them:

Sample of some in-game music, I think Liam has done a great job:

The first iteration of the games main menu, credit to Matt for putting this together:

We will be taking our demo on the road in April. Slug disco will have a stand at EGX Rezzed where John and Matt (and possibly others) will be letting the public have a hands on look at Empires of the Undergrowth for the first time.

EGX Rezzed is a 3 day event at the Tobacco Dock in London on the 7th – 9th April. You can buy tickets to the event from their website:https://www.egx.net/rezzed

If you go to the event do come and see us. We will be live tweeting about it so follow the Slug Disco twitter account to keep up to date.@SlugDisco

Progress on the game is moving along well. Underground is looking very nice and the surface is moving along rapidly. Expect to hear more about the progress over the weekend.

With the first couple of weeks of the year already gone by you may be wondering what we have been up to. Well, Matt has a screen shot for us today:

This is an early shot of the Queens chamber in Empires of the Undergrowth, running in Unreal Engine 4. The little white point-lights will eventually form part of ground decoration which should be appearing in the coming days. Exciting times!

We had a great time at EGX. We got to speak to a load of other indie developers and had a go at their titles. I particularly enjoyed having a go on EITR and getting completely destroyed by the boss on the demo level. I am a massive fan of both the souls series and Diablo so this little indie game was right up my alley.

I also tried out Crystal Rift with a VR headset. It is great fun and I cannot wait till the day I can pick up a VR headset of my own.

We had the opportunity to chat to different publishers and we learned a few things by going to a series of workshops. Needless to say the future looks bright generally.

Yes we have been unusually quiet this past week. We will try and post things but there will be a little lull until the last week of the month.

But do not fear it is not because we are not doing anything… in fact it is the opposite we are working harder than ever! Reason being we are attending EGX on the 24th and 25th and so we are getting together a game build and preparing promotional material. By the moths end there should be much more available here for you to sink your teeth in to, and in the following month the main site will get an update as well!
